OUTER ROTOR TYPE MOTOR COVERED WITH COVER MEMBER AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240210876 titled 'OUTER ROTOR TYPE MOTOR COVERED WITH COVER MEMBER AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

The abstract describes an outer rotor type motor with a cover that allows air to be sucked inside and discharged outside through openings in the cover, enhancing cooling efficiency.

  • Motor includes a substrate, stator, rotor, and cover.
  • Cover has openings for air intake and discharge.
  • Air is sucked inside through the first opening and discharged outside through the second opening.
  • Cooling efficiency is improved by the airflow generated by the rotation of the rotor.

Potential Applications: - Electric vehicles - HVAC systems - Industrial machinery

Problems Solved: - Overheating in motors - Improved cooling efficiency - Enhanced performance and longevity of the motor

Benefits: - Increased motor lifespan - Improved performance - Energy efficiency

Commercial Applications: Title: Enhanced Cooling Motor Technology for Various Industries This technology can be utilized in electric vehicles, HVAC systems, and industrial machinery to improve cooling efficiency and overall performance, leading to cost savings and increased reliability.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the airflow generated by the cover openings improve the motor's performance?

  - The airflow helps dissipate heat generated during operation, preventing overheating and enhancing overall efficiency.

2. What are the potential long-term cost savings associated with using this motor technology?

  - By improving cooling efficiency and extending the motor's lifespan, businesses can save on maintenance and replacement costs over time.


Original Abstract Submitted

an outer rotor type motor includes a motor substrate, a stator provided on the motor substrate, a rotor mounted with a rotational shaft, and a cover provided on an outside of the rotor in a radial direction of the rotor and an axial direction of a rotational shaft. the cover covers the motor. a first opening is formed on a central portion, in the radial direction, of a first portion of the cover opposing a part on which the rotational shaft of the rotor is mounted in the axial direction. an air is sucked inside of the cover from an outside of the cover through the first opening by rotation of the rotor, and the air sucked is discharged to the outside of the cover through a second opening formed on a position away from the first opening in the axial direction.
